RE: The ONE thing missing in social media & why you NEED to know it!

in #dlive7 years ago (edited)

Gah! I almost followed you from your first comment, until I saw this comment and saw that you gave yourself 100% upvotes (but that you're not really giving upvotes to others).
A piece of advice.
The follow for follow type of comments are frowned upon on this platform and this platform doesn't need more people who are mostly interested in paying themselves rather than making great content and supporting other people's content.
When you make a comment, make sure the comment is interesting, relevant (in that it shows that you actually watched/read/listened to the post) and doesn't ask for a follow back.
Why?
Because when you ask for a follow back you expose your ulterior motives for commenting in the first place. It's disingenuous. And besides, you should only follow someone if you are genuinely interested in them and the content they make, not because you want something in return.
Having a large following here that doesn't care about you is completely pointless and won't earn you more money either.
Not only that, but you will be completely ignored by scouts of great communities that really help you grow your account. I am a scout, but I blacklist people who demand follow for follow or upvote for upvote.

I hope this advice helps you on your path here in Steemit.
